The historic and beloved flagship store in Oakville, California was founded in 1881, and has been serving locals and visitors ever since. For decades, it has been a "must stop" destination for food, wine, picnic provisions, and gifts. All of the food can be taken to-go, or can be enjoyed on the picnic grounds.

The shelves are overflowing with exclusively curated gourmet food products sourced from California artisans and purveyors, with a focus on Napa and Sonoma Valleys. They also offer a high quality yet accessible collection of our neighbors’ wines for purchase by the glass or by the bottle. Not only is the store a favorite stop for visitors, but it's also a center of the community and a place where neighbors come to gather and shop throughout the day.

Lombard Street is best known for the one-way section on Russian Hill between Hyde and Leavenworth Streets, in which the roadway has eight sharp turns (or switchbacks) that have earned the street the distinction of being the crookedest [most winding] street in the world, although this title is contested.

The Painted Ladies

One of the best-known groups of "Painted Ladies" is the row of Victorian houses at 710–720 Steiner Street, across from Alamo Square park, in San Francisco. It is sometimes known as "Postcard Row." The houses were built between 1892 and 1896... by developer Matthew Kavanaugh, who lived next door in the 1892 mansion at 722 Steiner Street. This block appears very frequently in media and mass-market photographs of the city and its tourist attractions and have appeared in an estimated 70 movies, TV programs, and ads, including in the opening credits of the television series Full House. In 2010, the first Painted Lady in 35 years was put up for sale, the asking price of $3,999,999. It is located on the corner of Steiner and Grove.
